1.
Find the value of the teddy bear:
- The first equation shows three teddy bears adding up to 6.
- So, `Teddy Bear + Teddy Bear + Teddy Bear = 6`
- This means `3 × Teddy Bear = 6`
- Therefore, `Teddy Bear = 6 ÷ 3 = 2`
2.
Find the value of the Christmas tree:
- The second equation shows one teddy bear plus one Christmas tree equals 13.
- We know the teddy bear is 2, so: `2 + Christmas Tree = 13`
- Therefore, `Christmas Tree = 13 - 2 = 11`
3.
Find the value of the gift box:
- The third equation shows the Christmas tree minus the gift box equals 4.
- We know the Christmas tree is 11, so: `11 - Gift Box = 4`
- Therefore, `Gift Box = 11 - 4 = 7`
4.
Solve the final equation:
- The last equation asks for the sum of one teddy bear, one Christmas tree, and one gift box.
- So, `Teddy Bear + Christmas Tree + Gift Box = ?`
- Substituting the values: `2 + 11 + 7 = 20`
The answer is 20.
